London: Churchill War Rooms & Westminster Small-Group Walking Tour with War Rooms Entry

Walk through Westminster
and travel back to wartime London

Spend 90 minutes walking with your guide through Westminster, the heart of British politics during the Second World War. Pass landmarks such as the Battle of Britain Monument, the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Whitehall, Downing Street and the Cenotaph, and imagine the city living under air raid sirens and blackout restrictions.

Your expert guide vividly explains how the Blitz changed London, how Londoners held on, and what decisions were made at the heart of government during the darkest days of the war.

Enjoy a 60-minute exclusive guided tour of the Churchill War Rooms

Enter the Churchill War Rooms, the underground command centre where Churchill and his closest aides directed the war, without queuing. On a 60-minute guided tour just for your tour group, explore the rooms where crucial decisions were made and the military situation was monitored around the clock.

See the key rooms and artefacts and hear how Churchill, his War Cabinet and staff worked underground, along with stories of the daily lives, challenges and decisive moments of the people who lived and worked there.

Finish in the bunker around closing time

In the late afternoon, as the War Rooms prepare to close, finish the tour as some of the last visitors. Picture the bunker falling silent after the war ended in 1945, as the meetings ended, the maps were cleared and the lights went out. The tour ends at the Churchill War Rooms.
